Berry Sweet Feat. Color Club's "Very Merry Berry"

Good day my neglected lovelies. I'm going to admit, you have not seen a recent post due to a high volume of holiday lazyness. Yes, yes, the holiday season is supposed to bring out the busy bee in all of us and force out an ungodly amount of productivity. Yea, so far not happening. I have no plans to run around like a decapitated chicken, thank you. I don't have a lot to say, due to the fact that i'm ashamed of my sloth, so i'm going to get right to the nails.

For this mani....
Finger Paints "Pretty as a Portrait"
Orly "Twilight"
Color Club "Poptastic"
Color Club "Very Merry Berry" 

BEHOLD! My messy messy cuticles covered in the very lovely "Pretty As a Portrait" by Finger Paints. This is a pretty deep plum color like no other i own. Not only is this a classy color with a bit of spunk, but it also has a dreamy creme formula. As much as i adore glitter, i can never pass up on a good creme. It's a classic nail finish that seems to be rapidly fading in popularity amongst the glamorous glitters. I used two coats of this shade to kick stark my mani.

I don't know how many of you saw these in stores, but Orly has put out two light shimmer top coats for the holidays. This is the silver out of the gold and silver pair. "Twilight" is litterally the shimmer that's missing from any solid creme. It does not over power your color like a normal glitter but enhances its dimension by adding a subtle sparkle.

With a quarter of a foundation sponge i sponged on some of Color Club's "Poptastic," the name sake of the nifty neon collection Poptastic. I sponged this down about half way my nail. At this time i have a plum shimmer with a neon pink, turned not so neon going half way down. Looking at this picture makes me sad, because i had to chop off my nails and now i've got tiny nubbins. I miss my claws!

I have three amazing words for you right now. "Very Merry Berry." I searched high and low for the scented holiday Color Club glitters. This one dazzles with purple, blue, and pink convex glitters that add an unusual texture and an even more intriguing scent. I used this glitter over the whole nail to bring the separated components together. This is honestly one of my new favorite polishes ever. It's a huge pain to remove, but sooooo worth it.
